, PREFACE
The development of children is one of the most fascinating wonders of life. From the
moment conception takes place until the end of adolescence when the person enters the
adult world, the developmental road is characterised by numerous miracles and mysteries.
We would very much like to share with you our training and experience in the field of child
psychology, not only as a clinical and counselling psychologist respectively, but also as the
proud parents of two children, a grandson and a granddaughter.
The following should be kept in mind as you read this book: The media, and even some textbooks,
unfortunately tend to present the development of the child and adolescent as if all children and
adolescents develop according to a specific formula. However, such a presentation or viewpoint
contradicts one of the most important principles in Psychology - every person, and therefore also
the child and adolescent, is unique. Students and others interested in human behaviour should
therefore continually realise that research and similar information on human beings refer primarily
to 'averages' or guidelines. Special caution should be taken not to label children and adolescents
who do not meet these predetermined formulas or expectations. The uniqueness of the individual
should be respected, encouraged and nurtured. Disregarding this characteristic could easily lead to
the wasting of unique and valuable potential.
The target audience of this book is primarily undergraduate students in psychology,
education, social work, psychiatry and related disciplines. The nature and extent of Child and
Adolescent Development, however, also makes it suitable for use on the postgraduate level
(especially where this field was not a focus area in the undergraduate course). Furthermore,
the book contains valuable information which will be of interest to anyone who has an
interest in child and adolescent development.
Our main goals with this book are the following:
1) We are fully aware that information on child and adolescent development is available in
abundance in the media such as the Internet, magazines and newspapers. However, this
'information overflow' has created a problem of its own: it is very difficult to separate
the wheat from the chaff. The inevitable result is that many students arrive at
university believing in unproven 'facts', while there are parents who raise their children
according to principles that are often not much more than folklore! We do not imply
that psychology has all the answers. In fact, we are reminded on a daily basis that much
more research is needed before the last word can be spoken. This is why one of the
objectives of the book is to provide the reader with the most recent scientific information.
2) One of our most important aims is to make the book as relevant as possible to the
unique South African situation. It never ceases to amaze us to see how many students,
including those who enrol for psychology, are trained for a profession in South Africa -
by using international and especially American handbooks that basically have no
relevance and therefore no practical application value (except for the students to pass
their exams). We thus went to great lengths to trace and include local research data and
South African examples. This was no easy task, especially because some research data
and other information were, for example, part of unpublished reports and theses or
EBSCOhost - printed on 3/13/2022 4:27 AM via . All use subject to https://www.ebsco.com/terms-of-use
, published in relatively unknown sources. However, the search exceeded our expectations
and it is a pleasure to share the results with you.
A significant part of the book, however, still relies heavily on international and
particularly Western research. There are mainly two reasons for this. Firstly, it cannot be
denied that there are certain 'universal truths' (information or data which, to a greater
or lesser degree, hold true for most or all cultures). These universal truths have been
uncovered by international researchers and it would be an academic omission to
disregard these important contributions. Secondly, many research areas in child
development still lie fallow in South Africa, with the result that we had no other option
but to use international data. We would thus like to strongly encourage present and
future researchers to assist us in improving the relevancy level in future editions by
bringing empirical data and other information on the South African situation to our
attention. We owe it to our students, colleagues and other interested parties to provide
them with relevant material.
3) We are aware that the majority of students will be reading this book in their second or
even third language. We are equally aware that many students bring with them a
scholastic backlog, for whatever reason. Thus, the book has been made as user- and
especially student-friendly as possible; the writing style and the language level have
therefore been made very simple and accessible. For this purpose, we also incorporated
the services of professional language editors. Furthermore, new concepts and terms have
been defined, while keywords have been printed in bold. To assist students in their
studies, additional information is provided in inserts (boxes) to facilitate further
understanding. These boxes include topics for critical thinking, focus on interesting
South African and other research or concentrate on the practical application of the
issues discussed. At the end of each major section, questions are provided to aid the
student in the review of the material. A short summary is provided at the end of each
chapter to further facilitate the student's revision of the learned material.
In order to understand our method of working, a few points need clarification:
a) We decided to reduce the number of references in this book somewhat. The reasons were:
In some of our other books the number of pages of the reference list almost equals that of
a full chapter in the book. The cost implications of an unnecessary detailed reference list
therefore speak for itself.
I nformation that may be regarded as part of the 'general knowledge' of psychologists has
not been referenced.
At most tertiary institutions the course in child development is presented on the first- or
second-year level where it is seldom expected from students to know the references or to
use them in the exams.
Many readers find 'unnecessary' references annoying as they block the flow of the
sentences.
At the same time, we do acknowledge the academic importance of good referencing. Any
reader who therefore needs any information on a source mentioned or unmentioned is welcome to
contact the editors.
